Marcia and Anne: I may have missed it, but I haven't seen info on how the printer was set up originally? Did you set it up to use CUPS, Post Script or both in LM8.2? When I see HP, I immediately think "Post Script", but I'm not that familiar with them in Linux...in Windows they can be a real PITA.
When I set up my Epson 740 USB, I set it up in CUPS as Printer (printer0) and in Post Script as Printer1. Now, the only problems I have printing from the net or email is when someone includes emoticons .... with those, I have to select all, copy and paste into OO, remove the emoticon(s) and then print.
